Robotic assistants become more efficient if it can automatically log information into the patient's electronic health records. To let the nurses and doctors utilize their time more for patient's treatment analysis purpose, cyclic task-based robotic assistance is needed for sure. This research has been carried out to make the medical science more efficient by reducing doctor's and nurse's inspection time and schedule maintaining error in patient's medicine intake criteria. Initially, this cyclic task-based robot has been designed and calibrated for COVID-19 patient's medicine intake purpose. Based on the demands and necessities, more related features will be added on the next phase. Line follower mechanism has been used in this research to maintain the communication between COVID-19 patient and the robot. Monitoring patient's necessities and alerting the nurses in emergencies can also be done flawlessly with this type of robotic medical-assistants in future.
